Welcome to Flourgirl

The first thing I learned to bake was homemade bread. As a little girl my job was to add the flour. I made little loaves in my Easy Bake Oven in the cake pan. To this day nothing smells better than bread baking in the oven. I am happy to be a housewife. I retired from the medical field as an Ultrasound and Vascular Technologist in the Spring of 2013. I enjoy cooking, baking, gardening, canning and entertaining. Once in awhile I will throw in fun crafty ideas. I love to share my recipes and memories. I feel it's important to do sweet things for others. ~flourgirl
